We did not expect Tsitsipas to start the tournament in Antwerp so confidently. In the last round, Stefanos' opponent was Dutchman Van de Zandschulp, the 67th-ranked player in the world. The match lasted an hour and 37 minutes, and Stefanos won it 7:5, 6:3. During the game, the Greek served six times with four double faults, winning 75% of points on the first and 55% on the second. Tsitsipas recently held a solid fourth place in the ATP rankings but has now slipped to seventh. There is a feeling that the Greeks will do everything possible to correct this situation.
Yannick Hanfmann
Before the tournament in Belgium, the German played two tournaments in China, where he played five matches. In Beijing, he lost to Alcaraz, and in Shanghai to Eubanks. In Antwerp, Hanfmann has two matches played and two wins over Blochx and Dominic Thiem. The match against Tim lasted two hours and 43 minutes, and Hanfmann won it 6:4, 5:7, 6:4.

Expert Betting Tips
Stefanos played his first match at the tournament in Antwerp very confidently and deservedly beat not the easiest opponent, which shows Tsitsipas' good form. Plus, the Greek is doubly motivated for the upcoming meeting, as his opponent is Yannick Hanfmann, the German who defeated Stefanos in late June in Mallorca, and Tsitsipas greatly desires revenge. Recently, there have been a lot of sensations on tennis courts; however, in the upcoming game, we believe that the favorite will achieve a confident victory. The main thing is that Stefanos will play as confidently on Friday as he did on Thursday.
